Region where your Mānuka Honey was sourced:
This batch (Sample ID 3024520) from New Zealand Honey Co. Limited was independently tested by Analytica Laboratories Ltd in New Zealand. It carries a UMF grade of 21.3 and shows Methylglyoxal (MGO) at 921 mg/kg — MGO is the key measure of manuka’s antibacterial strength. DHA, a natural precursor that converts to MGO as honey matures, helps explain how MGO levels develop over time. Leptosperin is measured at 216 mg/kg, a botanical marker that supports the genuine manuka origin of this honey. With MGO well above 500, this is a high-strength manuka: it’s ideal for shoppers wanting a potent, premium product — think concentrated daily wellness use, high-impact beauty and skin-care formulations, or culinary uses where a bold manuka character is desired. New Zealand Honey Co. Limited sources and tests to high standards, and the clear lab results from Analytica Laboratories give you confidence in what’s in the jar.
In short: UMF 21.3, MGO 921 mg/kg, Leptosperin 216 mg/kg — independently tested by Analytica Laboratories Ltd (New Zealand); a high-strength, premium manuka suitable for concentrated wellness, beauty and bold culinary uses.

Mānuka Honey FAQ
Why is this honey so expensive?
It’s harvested in remote areas of New Zealand and undergoes rigorous independent testing for quality, purity, and potency — all of which adds cost. Rarity and global demand also play a role.
The colour of my honey looks different. Why?
Colour can vary naturally by batch and region. It doesn’t indicate strength or efficacy; a high-MGO honey can be light, and a lower-MGO honey can be dark and visa-versa.
My honey is too hard/runny. What’s wrong?
Temperature affects viscosity. To soften, leave it somewhere warm. To firm, chill in the fridge briefly.
This Mānuka Honey tastes bitter — is it off?
High-grade Mānuka can taste bold or slightly bitter due to potent bioactive compounds. Honey doesn’t spoil in the usual sense; gentle warming can reverse crystallisation.
How is Mānuka honey different from regular honey?
Mānuka contains higher levels of methylglyoxal (MGO) and carries a UMF™ rating based on independent lab tests of key markers.
New Zealand Honey Co. is committed to complete transparency. Sourced from hives across New Zealand’s rugged, untouched landscapes, the honey is UMF™ certified, fully traceable back to the hive, and free from GMOs, glyphosate residue, antibiotics, or additives.
The company follows a simple principle: nature is best preserved in its purest form.
